Brad Raffensperger, Georgia’s Republican secretary of state, has spent half a million dollars defending himself against a defamation lawsuit triggered by his comments on a discredited video.
The lawsuit arises from a 2020 video shown to state lawmakers, alleging election fraud in Georgia, which has been widely debunked by media and officials.
Jacki Pick, the plaintiff, claims defamation over Raffensperger's observations about the video in his book, despite it not mentioning her by name.
In a troubling twist, Raffensperger feels compelled to lie about the video content as a precondition for any potential settlement in the defamation suit.
